“Ketamine therapy is helping the best of me shine while quieting the thoughts and anxiety that can so often be self-defeating. It has, quite simply, been life-changing.”—Jack, patient

Up to one-third of patients with depression do not respond to several attempts at treatment or struggle with side effects. Dr. Prashad refused to settle for the relatively ineffective treatments available to these patients and decided to seek out the most evidence-based, innovative options.

She first became interested in IV ketamine because of the robust, rapid results and lack of side effects between treatments. Patients often notice that depression dramatically improves in a matter of days. Additionally, she became the first physician in the Houston area to offer deep transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy. This revolutionary approach to treating psychiatric conditions without medication is considered the most advanced TMS system currently available and is covered by insurance.

Dr. Prashad is a board-certified psychiatrist, who completed both medical school and residency at Baylor College of Medicine. She understands that any one treatment, no matter how cutting-edge, can’t be the right solution for everyone, and that treatments must be customized for each patient. Her patients describe her as compassionate, insightful and approachable, and above all, 100 percent dedicated to helping them achieve their goals.
